Actually because the tire can not come off of the rim they are not leagal in any part of the USA. In Colorado and Utah we tend to take exception to that, however, because they really could care less and never stop or ticket people for it. Same goes, in Co. for the fenders, No flares required, shoot, do not even need fenders at all if you do not want them on there.

Furthermore, and this one I LOVE, no ticket for driving with your windshield down! This is because it came that way from the factory, and it was intended to be able to do that. Therefore we do not have to put them up! (admittedly I usually do on the interstate. Too loud.

They will tell you that in the instance when they deploy a spike strip. Again, they have NOT been decided upon by the DOT as yet. So they are not LEGAL nor illegal. As for the rubber not coming off the rim, that makes the set up much safer. That's why it's a hot topic these days. Anyone running beadlocks should invest in a good torque wrench (I have a digital) and make sure to torque the beadlocks every month!

As for driving with the windshield down...I drove all the way through Oregon on my way to Canada with it down. I wore motorcycle goggles just to see. I carry three pair in my rig now just for those times when feeling like you're on a motorcycle yet surrounded by steel is just good fun. Oh, and the bugs are high in protein too

I am currently deployed to Iraq (again), and the way I cope with my addiction (Jeep and Harley) withdrawls is to take a bunch of photos before I depart. Well this time, all I can find is posing shots, and almost everyone has one of my bikes in it along w/ the Jeep (sorry). I have been a lurking member for a couple years (?think its been that long?); however, I just recently started posting. There is a lot of great information and helpful knowledgable members here. I cannot wait to "finish" the Jeep upon returning home.
